It's just a fungus that grows on un cured wood. It'll go away in about a week.

Well without a picture I can't be positive. And since you just set up this tank it is my best guess.

It will go away eventually and siphoning and rubbing it off with make it happen quicker.

I wouldn't recommend the guppies unless you are planning on keeping them for the long haul
